DW8 relatedHard to say what the best weapon is as any weapon is deadly with slash/cyclone/velocity combo. Add jubiliation on top of that and you're invincible. Zhang Liaos twin halbreds are probably the best because you can just spam switch attack for a massive elemental damage. Xiahou Yuan's bow and rod offers instant kill with c2 and c6 when fully loaded with elements. Zhong Hui's flying swords are easily abused in mounted combat as well as some other weapons that have elemental 360d damage. My personal favourite is Kirin Fang though. Awesome weapon for an awesome character May not be the best but still more than enough to kill any officer within 3-5 secs with C2+shadow+C2 combo and perfectly controls the crowd with C3 or C3ex in case of Xiahou Dun. Velocity10 is a must though.I think it was much faster in DW7E as I was never touched there regardless of the size of a crowd.

There's no trick to it. I'm not using an orbment, it's not magic...and I'm not using an artifact, either. I just will fire to appear, and it does.McBurn

I have no idea, I like a variety of weapons. I know what weapon I'd like to see that would be an instant favorite for me; Guan Yu's beard as a musou weapon like Bayonetta's hair. Just like Bayonetta's hair wrapped around her to make a form-fitting black catsuit, Guan Yu's beard can wrap around him and act as his tight black robe. Then when the player enters Guan Yu's musou mode, similar to Bayonetta, the beard unravels forming giant fists pummeling his enemies meanwhile leaving Guan Yu momentarily unclothed with his intimate regions obscured by random whirling weaves of his beard.

Every weapon has its own strength and weaknesses it depends on the enemies your going to battlethere are things to be considered like monster type and elements! before facing them so just make lots of set-up!.. see your guild to view the monster you encounter for type.
